For 2-3 weeks, smelled gas vapors when we got near the car to go somewhere. I got under the car and took a photo of a rust spot with gas staining near it. It looks like it was part of a recall (14v682000) but our car was not included. When I asked the dealer about it they said they took care of the recall on one of our previous visits. I had to pay for a new gas tank.

Which can cause your car to catch fire to stop suddenky in middle of road use way more gas ruin all of your plugs and coils again. Why would ford not fix this problem?why is this a problem?what if someone dies? Then what? I have reiciepts upon reciiepts. Why are we the consumers the one who has to pay for your faults. I use my car for work. I take care of my cars and drive them like a lady should. No rough business in my car. Now I cant drive car because your PCM new is 1000 . This will forever discourage me from buying another ford. I dont understand how you can just ignore what is going on with alot of ford edges. One would think that your reputation would be important to you. It is not the driver or owners fault it is whomever made these computers. It happens to edges with low to high miles. It doesnt matter. Its faulty computer that you need to care of.

Fuel leak and major water corrosion to undercarriage of car. Tried to get wheel barrings done and was told it would have to be welded off and on. I am still paying on this car and it is unsafe. They priced this car at 10000 with finance charge when I was told the car was 6500 I put 1500 down plus 746 make up downpayment. I have still been paying on it and I do not believe I should be because it cant be worth that much if this was a flood car.

"takata recall" we have tried reaching out to several dealerships for the past year regarding both of our recall notices (airbag and fuel tank). Every time we received one we have contacted (3) nearby ford dealerships in grand rapids, every dealership for the past year continues to inform us they do not have the parts and services and to call back in a month. Every month for the past year we have called - still no parts! We are aware this car came from florida from our report, which we purchased in michigan. Today, october 26th, 2018 received the settlement claim. It states we cannot be apart of the claims because we have not serviced our vehicle yet. However, we have tried for one full year to get this vehicle serviced! At this point in time, we are now considering hiring an attorney and attending the hearing on december 11th, 2018. We would like to receive notification how to get our recalls resolved and serviced in michigan, since noparts are available (on-going over one-year of calling). Please contact me directly how we are able to proceed?!

The vehicle was identifed under the federal safety agency campaign number 14v682000 and was taken to my local ford dealership on august 22, 2016 to have the necessary repairs completed. A strong fuel odor was coming from the vehicle. After less than 30 minutes, the ford dealership called and said the repairs were completed. The only repairs that were completed were four new bolts (I have the invoice from the ford dealership showing only four new bolts were installed). The fuel tank was not replaced, no corrosion preventative was applied to the tank, and no inspection report was provided. Starting in august 2017, a strong fuel odor started again. The vehicle was returned to the local ford dealership, and I was informed that the fuel tank had so much corrosion it was starting to split in one corner. The ford dealership said it recommended a new fuel tank, and that it would not be covered until the safety recall and it would be my responsibility to pay for the new fuel tank.
Car has sudden loss of power, accelerator doesn't work, but the car doesn't actually die out. This happens at all speeds, this is extremely dangerous on highways and in traffic. The wrench light comes on. This is a known problem with many fords and the fix is the throttle body replacement. Ford has a customer service deal going on to fix it, but my year of car hasn't been included although I have the exact issue.
Ford dealer has my 2007 ford edge due to it stalling out while driving 60 MPH on a highway causing my engine to die so I had to get towed home and off of the highway. The dealer originally thought it was the electronic throttle body but they have now determined that was not the problem. Instead it is the PCM which is costing me over $1500, if that even fixes this. Plus I have been paying for a rental car because the dealers don't have free loaner vehicles. So this whole thing is going to cost me about $2000. Now I have been researching this problem, and can clearly tell this is not normal wear and tear instead it is a faulty part that so many other owners are experiencing. I clearly see ford has been made aware of this problem and they should be taking responsibility for their mistake. Ford has refused to issue a recall on this problem even though it is very dangerous and costly for the vehicle owner. I have never owned a ford before and likely will not again because of this bad experience.
Bad electronic throttle body and it's sensor. This is a common and costly repair with ford vehicles but they have refused a recall. It is dangerous as it causes your vehicle to completely shut down while driving. It happens frequently when accelerating or randomly when driving at various speeds. The first time it happened I was driving 60 MPH and my car suddenly shut down and locked up then was unable to start so I had to get it towed.
Very hesitant to pick up speed at times, but more importantly on 2 occasions out side of a week , I was not able to stop, my break pedal would do anything, it wouldn't go down for me to stop, the 1st time I was driving and tried to stop at a stop sign and couldnt stop the second time was on a busy hwy and I almost hit a car at a stop light, because my breaks didnt work. . And yes I have had my breaks and rotors replaced thinking that was the problem but obviously it wasnt, I talked to a mechanic at the ford dealer and my personal mechanic and both have told me they have had lots of complaints regarding the same thing. Now I have to ask a friend to ride me back and forth to work , because I am afraid to use my car in fear of killing myself or someone else.
Took car to local ford dealer, with an appointment, for recall 14r02. Cella ford, new bern, nc. They had car a week. Did nothing, but told me the car was fixed.
